A suspected paramilitary successor group killed 10 farmworkers at a rural property in the northwestern Colombian province of Antioquia, police said.

The crime was committed by a group of armed men in a rural area of Santa Rosa de Osos, a town north of the city of Medellin, a National Police spokesperson said.

One farmworker was wounded but survived the Wednesday evening massacre at the La España tamarillo farm, the spokesperson said, adding that the Los Rastrojos criminal gang is suspected of carrying out the killings.
